A New "Philosophy" on Skin Care

I started up my skin regimen again. I kind of slacked off on it. I need to start taking more care of my skin.


I have used other products before like Juice Beauty, Proactive, Shiseido, and Kiehl's. They were all good, but some reason, my skin still broke out, I haven't found that one line of products yet.

SO here I am embarking on a line called Philosophy. I bought the bundle called "optional makeup" It cost around $79.00.

It came with:
Purity (8 fl oz)- The one step facial cleanser.
Hope in a Jar (2 oz)- Facial moisturizer for all skin types
Hope in a Tube (.5 oz)- High density eye and lip firming cream
When Hope is not Enough (1 fl oz) - Facial firming and lifting serum with glutathione, peptides, vitamin c and e, and soy
Microdelivery Peel (3 packets)


My favorite would be the microdelivery peel. It's a 2 step process that you use about 1 to 2 times a week. It's a great way to exfoliate your skin. The first step is a vitamin C peptide resurfacing crystals that you massage onto your face. It has a warming sensation and it's nice to have that grit to feel the dirt coming up. Then after 60 seconds of massaging the crystals, you proceed to step 2, which is a lactic/salicylic activating gel. Once you put it on your face with the crystals, it foams up to activate the crystals and it just warms your face up. It's really nice. I love doing this part. And then afterwards, my face feels nice and smooth and refreshed.

I would say my least favorite of the items would be The Hope in the Jar moisturizer. It has this funky smell to it that I don't care to much for. I really don't use it, I probably will head over to Sephora's and see what other moisturizers they have.

I took home a sample of the booster serum from the Philosophy line and I love the way it smells. It has this citric smell to it. Very refreshing.

But I have only started using it and it has been a week. My skin has noticeably changed texture. My pimples are still there but fading. But I do say that my tone is getting more even.

I'll keep you updated on this!
